In a New Delhi neighborhood, residents line up in the blistering 45 degree Celsius heat (113 Fahrenheit) carrying empty jerry cans and water bottles, waiting for the government water tanker truck to arrive.

“We only get water once a week and each time we have to fight for it,” one woman yells.

There are no laid pipelines in unplanned areas like this, so tanker trucks are their only source of water.
